A/N: Thank you, thank you, thank you for your encouraging reviews!
Ginny stirred, it was dark and silent. She couldn't see anything. Am I dead? She thought. Is this what it feels like to be dead? Where's Luna? She should be here if I'm dead. She… Ginny refused to let herself even think about Luna's horrible death. It's dark, why can't I see? Noise… there's lots of noise. And she heard it, loud raucous talking and some laughter. Maybe I'm in heaven, everybody seems happy. Then her blindfold was removed and she saw. She saw her surroundings for the first time and realized that a large number of people were not happy. Then, she remembered the happenings before the incident in the woods.
Flashback
Students running and screaming, trying to get away from the masked Death Eaters. "Where's Harry?! Where's Dumbledore?! Where's Harry?!" Someone screams. Dumbledore didn't want to leave the school, but he had to, so did Harry. The prefects and older kids try to protect themselves and younger kids. It wasn't going well. The front doors are thrown open and students gush out like water in a breaking dam. Most don't even make it into the Forbidden Forest before being struck down by Death Eaters and Slytherins.
End Flashback
Now, there were people all around. Death Eaters and Slytherins were sitting at the four house tables. The inner circle of Death Eaters were sitting at the staff table, and in Dumbledore's usual spot sat none other than Lord Voldemort. She saw now that she was sitting on the ground in front of the staff table with all of the other prisoners. But, it couldn't be all of the prisoners, there were only girls. Where are the boys? She thought.
"Hello my loyal followers." Boomed the cold voice of Voldemort. "We have taken Hogwarts!" He screamed to the cheers of his followers. "I sit here in Dumbledore's seat." He spit out the name like it was some vile thing. "As a reward for your efforts I have these young ladies for you." Ginny's eyes got wide in horror. What's going to happen to us?
"But first, is there any girl in here with the desire to join my side?" Voldemort asked the group. Nobody answered. "Nobody?" Not that he would have let them do it easily. "I'm giving you the chance of a lifetime you little bitches." He yelled out. "Nobody wants to take it, eh? Allright, we'll begin the auction." Auction?
Avery Knot, who had been sitting at the staff table, got up and pulled one of the girls to her feet. It was HERMIONE! She's alive, oh, thank God she's alive. "This is Hermione Granger," Veldemort boomed, "friend of the famous Harry Potter. She is a gift for one of my most loyal supporters," He paused. "Mr. Severus Snape." Ginny gasped at seeing him at the staff table in his usual seat. He's a TRIPLE agent, and all this time I thought he was loyal to Dumbledore. Hermione was dragged by Knot up to Snape
There were many girls, but they seemed to come to Ginny quickly. "Why, is that Ginevra Weasly?" Voldemort asked sounding mildly surprised. "You have grown a lot since I saw you last. You have had quite a fall from grace, haven't you?" He asked looking at her bruised and dirty form. "Because we have a history, Ginevra, I will give you one more chance to join my side." She said nothing. "Ok, you will eventually be a gift for Mr. Draco Malfoy who is off on my business right now, but for now let's see who I can get to take care of you." The room was noticeably quieter, most of the men wanted Ginny. "Blaise Zabini." He said and she got to her Knot pulled her up. He was gripping her arm roughly and causing bruises, she didn't so much as wince.
She didn't even struggle, but walked over to Blaise at the staff table who was looking very cocky. Malfoy! I can't believe that I'm going to have to listen to Malfoy. And Zabini too!
A/N: Short, but it got the point across. I hope you like it after all the action in the first chapter. I will get the next chapter out by tomorrow because this is so short and I didn't expect to end this chapter here. I just wanted to get something up for you guys to read. Please review!
